Crawl Back (Under My Stone) |
| This time you hurt me |
| You really did it this time you did |
| Did you count your fingers after shaking my hand |
| God forbid |
| Riff raff crawling from the slums |
| Right there in front of all your chums |
| I swear by the pricking of my thumbs |
| I’ll make your day and melt away |
| I’ll crawl back under my stone |
| I’ll crawl back under my stone |
| I’ll crawl back under my stone |
| But you won’t have to stand next to me |
| You won’t have to introduce me |
| You won’t have to think about, talk about, care about, me |
| I’ll crawl back |
| I’ve got a nerve just showing my face don’t you think |
| Scruffy little likes ought to know their place don’t you think |
| Old boy, sorry to intrude |
| Damn shame pretty bloody rude |
| I should be horsewhipped and sued |
| Then I’ll go quietly my tail between my knees |
| I’ll crawl back under my stone |
| I’ll crawl back under my stone |
| I’ll crawl back under my stone |
| But you won’t have to stand next to me |
| You won’t have to introduce me |
| You won’t have to think about, talk about, care about, me |
| I’ll crawl back |
| I want to be middle class |
| Floors and ceilings made of glass |
| I just want to be, I just want to be free |
| You had me in a second you had it all reckoned, you did |
| You guessed my game and my name, rank and number, you did |
| Somehow I gave myself away |
| Some code, some word I didn’t say |
| I missed one line in the play |
| And the trap shut tight and you did me all right |
| I’ll crawl back under my stone |
| I’ll crawl back under my stone |
| I’ll crawl back under my stone |
| But you won’t have to stand next to me |
| You won’t have to introduce me |
| You won’t have to think about, talk about, care about |
| You won’t have to ask about, fuss about, discuss about |
| You won’t have to mind about, swear about, forget about, me |
| Crawl back |
| I’ll crawl back |
| I’ll crawl back |
| Crawl back |
| I’ll crawl back |
| Crawl back |
| Crawl back |
| I’ll crawl back |
